the h22 is a hard swap on to a f22 the h23 head is a very easy swap and all you really neede is a modified water pump, and a prelude ecu.

this is acctually the f23. but still the same it is possible right. the ecu should still work but not as well. i thought all vtec ecus would work on any vtec head. just not to thier potential. if i have been missinformed please let me know.

your friend would be better off swapping the whole h22 in there. with the money he's spend trying to get a h22 head to work on an f23 he could buy 3 or 4 h22's
